One Of The Biggest Fight Of All Time ? Yeah Right

[denilson200]

The hype machine went into over drive on this one.

In the preview the boxing panel of Foreman, Lewis and Hopkins said that this was the third biggest fight ever behind

1) Joe Louis Vs Max Schemilling
2) Ali Vs Frazier

That now looks a disgraceful thing to say. This fight will be forgotten very quickly. Yeah sure, money wise it had the numbers. But this fight wont be talked about in 2 years time, never mind in 40 years time like the others have.

I wasn't as excited by this fight. I can think of a few fights that would excite more - Vlad Vs Wilder for one.

As for the fight. Mayweather did what he does - Win.

People may laugh when they hear Pac-Man thinking he won the fight or some others who have said that. Look - Pac-Man did not win the fight but I see were he's coming from because Pac-Man thinking "He never hurt me, had me in trouble, shaken me, had me down, cut me. I was forcing the fight, he kept tying me up on the inside. I've had harder sparring sessions" .......which is true.

But that statement is true of the majority of Mayweathers fights over the past 10 years.

They all could say that.

People forget, it's not what Mayweathers does to you, it's what Mayweather does not allow you to do to him, that wins him fights.

He doesn't allow his opponents to hurt him, nail him clean, gain momentum, he snuffs his opponent out. Thus because he does that. Mayweather doesn't have to do much in terms of being offensive to win fights. He does not have to beat the fighter down, he does not have to win rounds heavy, and get involved in big exchanges. He can just pop and stick and that's pretty much it, to win rounds, because he has not allowed the other fighter to do anything. I've always said the likes Erislandy Lara and Demitruis Andrade would be a nightmare for Mayweather. Stop thinking names. People say GGG. HE'LL STAND GGG ON HIS HEAD !!!! In fact I'll go as far to say that he'll beat GGG even if he came on the welterweight limit and GGG was a middleweight.

Is Mayweather TBE ? Defensively ? Yes. Offensively ? No.

Anyway are there are any other fights that excite you more than this ?

Can anyone think of others ? Nicholas Walters Vs Guillermo Rigondeaux is another one
